Wear straight to skin Made in our factory in India using the latest Japanese knitting technology About merino wool Merino wool is a sustainable fabric choice for eco-conscious consumers shopping for activewear. Made from the wool of Merino sheep it is both renewable and bio-degradable, and thanks to its natural properties it has a range of benefits which include it being carbon neutral, biodegradable and sustainable. Thermoregulating, wicking and comfortable to wear straight to skin Lightweight and insulating protecting you from windchill Crease resistant fabric which holds its colour and shape Does not require intensive washing as natural good bacteria help to self clean wool Wash care Thanks to its antimicrobial properties which make it resistant to odour-producing bacteria, your merino activewear will not need to be washed as regularly. We recommend quick washes in the sink with cool water, and spot cleaning any stains. You can refresh your garment between washes by gently steaming it. Hand wash* with gentle detergent, wool, or baby shampoo Lay flat to dry on a towel Apply a gentle iron with a slow steam Do not tumble dry *Why we use hand wash only merino wool Machine-washable merino wool is treated with a heat-resistant plastic, which cracks as it is washed and tumble dried. Aggressive washing damages merino, causing the wool to pill more, lose its shape and appear worn quicker than caring for hand wash only fibres. Overall, choosing hand wash only merino wool means items last longer and they’re more environmentally friendly. Colour: black
